SUMMARY:Grade XII - Work Experience Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Club activities proved out to be a mix of great enthusiasm and hardwork to bring out the hidden talents inside children\, to realise the innovative ideas they presented and finally to prove and present oneself on a given platform. The activities unleashed the talent of young Dipsites in different fields of art\, skill\, scientific applications\, practical implementation of ideas and attractive presentations. Woodwork\, paperwork and kitchen ideas were some among the various innovative and exciting clubs meant to shape the capabilities and the ideas shared by these children into something useful and productive.

The usual green ground was decorated by the hardworking hands of Dipsites with paper bits\, wood pulp and mud pots and vases. The students could be seen sincerely engaged in their activities held at different venues. Besides serving as a test for their teamwork and presentation of ideas\, the activities also provided a respite from the routine hectic schedule.  It was a pleasant surprise to watch Dipsites come out of their routine uniforms and present themselves in excitingly different forms; as chefs\, as innovative carpenters\, electricians\, environmentalists and amazing designers. The mesmerising objects and the tasty dishes which were prepared by the students took everyone by surprise and proved that these children had everything within themselves; the potential\, the talent and the will required and all that they needed was a touch of guidance and motivation. \nThe clubs provided a variety to bring out the talent present within each child ranging from woodwork\, paper machie\, pottery and gardening to cooking\, music and electrics. Each club was guided by a resource person along with a couple of teachers who guided and motivated the students. \nWoodwork attracted majority of the students who made wonderful furniture items and presented them beautifully to attract a number of visitors. The students made tree houses\, recliners\, beautiful chairs\, tables of different shapes and sizes\, benches\, beds\, airplane and other construction models of great accuracy and precision. The experience was altogether thrilling with the resource person guiding the young carpenters with all the tools and techniques which were so new to them. \nPaper Machie students who gathered around the water world represented an amazing skill to reuse waste paper and recreate it into things of beauty. The resource person could be seen sincerely guiding the students and helping them with the paper pulp. The soaked pulp was then shaped into mesmerising objects such as human and animal faces\, wall plates\, soap boxes\, candles\, tea pots\, flower vases\, cartoon characters\, key chains\, bangles and other artistic objects which captured many eyes. The activity also conveyed an important message which has a great significance in the backdrop of current environmental issues.

It thus provided a means of environmental conservation and protection. It also\, however represented a dying culture which defines Kashmir in its own unique sense. \nPottery was yet another activity conducted in the basement area where many students could be found working out with mud to create beautiful\, perfectly finished and finely carved objects. Holding onto the wheel with utmost caution and sensitivity\, these students learnt that to give any vague item a definite shape and independent characterisation\, love and affection are the primary ingredients. The activity also taught the students the meaning of patience and perseverance; of how these two virtues could turn mud into gold. \nMoving along with lawn mowers\, scissors and muddy hands\, the students associated with gardening as an activity could be found toiling hard in the gardening area of the school.
